Bug Description

I have Inkscape 0.47 on Windows XP.
JessyInk_1_4_0 is installed in inkscape/share/extensions folder (the same folder that contains index.py)

Following Heathenx's screencast, I took the following steps:
- Created a simple SVG file (800 x 540)
- Saved the SVG file
- Viewed the SVG file in Firefox (displayed as expected)
- Selected install/update on the JessyInk submenu located in the extensions menu of Inkscape
- Clicked Apply
- Saved the SVG file again in Inkscape
- Viewed the SVG file in Firefox
The black presentation background displays but only about an 800 wide x 10 high section of the presentation displays in the browser (Firefox).

I've probably missed something really simple put I've been pulling my hair out trying to find out what's wrong. Do you have any insights?

I had some time to look into this issue. Apparently, when you change the hight of a page in Inkscape it adds a transformation to every layer. I think this is a new feature starting in version 0.47. I would guess that this behaviour is needed to give the illusion that the lower edge of the page moves when it shrinks and expands. Layers that are added after changing the dimensions of the page do not receive a transformation and therefore appear as intended in the presentation.

A first workaround is to open a new image, set the desired page size, add at least one more layer and delete the first layer.

I found a fix for the problem. I just need to implement it for the mouse handlers as well and test it thoroughly.
